Fox News claimed
that an indictment is "likely" for Hillary Clinton in the
alleged "pay-for-play" scandal surrounding the Clinton
Foundation.

The reports remain
unverified, as Fox News has continued to call Ms Clinton's
credibility into question.

Anchor Brett Baier
claimed that "barring some obstruction in some way" that
the FBI will pursue an indictment for the Democratic presidential
nominee.

A representative for
the FBI was not immediately available to confirm Fox News' report.

The FBI came under
fire last week for the timing of director James Comey's announcement
that investigators discovered a new trove of possibly pertinent
emails linked to a previous investigation into Ms Clinton's use of a
private server – only 11 days before the presidential election.

But agents in the
New York field office wanted to keep a separate investigation into
alleged corruption within the Clinton Foundation alive, according to
the Wall Street Journal. The agents were reportedly in preliminary
stages of examining allegations of conflicts of interest and
corruption that surrounded the charitable organisation during Ms
Clinton's time as Secretary of State.
